ST413 Posted October 27, 2017 Report Posted October 27, 2017 By that prediction and the numbers I read it is good no to be interesting for Lumberton for sure. They are right on the number he predicts to be 5A D1. And it put Silsbee only 40 above being 4A D2. Quote
5GallonBucket Posted October 27, 2017 Report Posted October 27, 2017 Anybody know what Kountze and Woodville turned in? Quote

But it looks like I will have to wait 10 business days to find out. I have just been instructed to get their snapshot number, I will have to submit a Freedom of Information request. Quote

I saw somewhere their number was 1121 and projected number 1125 so it should be close to that Quote

But given the predictions that he has seen, not only Matt Stepp's but Carl Padilla's, he and I agreed that Lumberton will probably be one of, if not the, smallest school in 5A when the realignment comes out. He even made a request to change the mascot from the "Raiders" to the "Unluckies." Alpha Wolf 1 Quote

It won't be any different than what the program is already used to. Currently, we are the 5th smallest 5A in the state. it doesn't do any good to belly-ache about it. If it happens again, we just deal with it. There are plenty of great lessons to be taught with always being the smallest and constantly being an underdog. But will it hurt in the Win/Loss column? Sure it will, but oh well. Gotta play the hand that we're dealt no matter how crappy it is. Life is going to deal you some pretty crappy hands at times, so teach the kids to learn to deal with it.

Well, it wasn't like Coach Babin predicted gloom and doom. He noted that in the 3 years that he has been there, the Raiders have almost as many wins as they did in the 6 years before that. Just because he thinks they will be the small fish doesn't mean he believes they will be easy prey. Alpha Wolf 1 Quote

Regardless of where we end up next year, what he’s done with the program in just 3 years has been pretty good considering the lack of talent and numbers that we have. Quote
